    Oh no, my democracy is going to represent the people rather than an arbitrary subset of the people

    Fair point

    It just surprised me a bit that Labour have come up with this now, after Brexit, so I’m trying to read between the lines and see what motives they might have to do it. As much as I support Labour and broadening the voter base, I fear the ulterior motive here is to defend themselves from competition. If they actually wanted productive, democratic competition, they would adopt PR.

    happen to align with my biases!

    Please don’t assume my biases. It’s not a good look.

      Brexit supporters claimed brexit would open the nation to more wide skilled immigration rather then be a racist attempt to stop it.

      So of course that wanted immigration will lead to a community that needs a say in how the nation is run.
